Third line of the XV of France, the Toulouse player spoke about the opposition against Scotland on Tuesday.
Scotland, the next opponent of the Blues, is “a confident team“Warned the third line of the XV of France François Cros on Tuesday, a few days before the match on the 3rd day of the Six Nations Tournament. “Scotland is a team in form, which is confident: they won at Twickenham, it’s not nothing. They will arrive with the desire to pursue a third victory in as many games. It is up to us to curb their dynamics, to question them on their strengths“, assured the Toulousain in a press conference.
«All matches are tough. It’s a very mobile team, which plays a lot. It’s up to us to be present in this area and manage to counter Finn Russell, who is making a rather incredible start to the Tournament“Added Cros (28 years old, 17 selections). The Blues, sluggish winners of Italy (29-24) before falling in Ireland (32-19), receive Scotland on Sunday during the 3rd day of the Six Nations Tournament. The XV of Thistle, for its part, beat England (29-23) and Wales (35-7).
